Can cruise ships cut emissions and become good for the climate?
Cruise ships, while popular, face significant sustainability challenges due to high carbon emissions and environmental impacts. Larger cruise lines are adopting liquefied natural gas to reduce emissions, but this is not enough for carbon neutrality. Smaller operators like Lindblad Expeditions and HX are leading with sustainable practices, such as eliminating single-use plastics and sourcing food locally. The industry is criticized for contributing to overtourism and not benefiting local economies. Radical measures, like those in Amsterdam and Venice, aim to curb cruise numbers. The focus should shift from building larger ships to more sustainable practices to mitigate negative impacts.

Heathrow critic Ed Miliband fought to reopen his local airport
Ed Miliband, a critic of Heathrow expansion, is advocating for the reopening of Doncaster Sheffield Airport, despite its closure due to financial non-viability and proximity to other airports. He has lobbied the aviation minister to prevent the dismantling of the airport's controlled airspace, arguing it would hinder future operations. The South Yorkshire mayoral combined authority is considering a £100 million public investment to reopen the airport by 2026. However, environmental concerns are raised by Green Party members, who argue that reopening the airport contradicts climate change goals.
